With the Germans, I find that their most cost effective units now (current meta) are Grens w/upgrade, Stug III G, Tiger.
I haven't played lately* but I've been watching a lot of streams and casts lately, and I can agree that Grenadier heavy play into StuGs or Tigers is definitely a pattern I've seen in almost every game. Generally it goes 2 ways:
Grenadier Heavy > T2 Heavy > Tiger
Grenadier Heavy > Scout Car > StuGs
(In Team Games, an Elefant is often thrown in, and promptly destroyed by an ISU and ZiS Spam)
*It's Summer, I have no AC in this room and a faulty graphics card that crashes when it gets too hot. No games for me
The Pz Grens are essentially grens with assault rifles. In the old game, this was actually an upgrade that cost munitions. The ARs are worth at least as much as LMG42s. This game puts the price multiple of Munitions vs MP @ 4 to 2 x in various areas.
Explain this please, I don't follow. What is "the old game" and what does "the price multiple of Munitions vs MP @ 4 to 2 x in various areas" mean?
